One is a PG, the other is a center who handles the ball a ton, relative to others at his position.

I can't believe we don't have consensus on this. Luka is 100% playing PG for the Mavericks and has been since the back half of his rookie season.
Question 1: Is Lebron 4th in career assists?
Question 2: Is Lebron a forward?
Question 3: Is Luka Lebron-like on offense?
Question 4: Are we able to play 2 guards with Luka?
Question 5: What position usually guards Luka?
Question 6: What position does Luka usually guard?
My Answers: Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, SF, SF (obvious conclusion = Luka is a Point Forward)
Point is a role. Position is different. You can be a point from PG, SF, PF, or C as Magic, Marques Johnson, Paul Pressey, Pippen, Lebron, Joker, and YES LUKA have proven.
Luka is our Point SF. With him on the court, we almost always have 2 guards.
